Colloquium: Inclusions, boundaries, and disorder in scalar active matter
Active systems are driven out of equilibrium by exchanging energy and momentum with their
environment. This endows them with anomalous mechanical properties that are reviewed in …

Inertial self-propelled particles
L Caprini, U Marini Bettolo Marconi - The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
We study how inertia affects the behavior of self-propelled particles moving through a
viscous solvent by employing the underdamped version of the active Ornstein–Uhlenbeck …

Macroscopic stochastic thermodynamics
G Falasco, M Esposito - arXiv preprint arXiv:2307.12406, 2023 - arxiv.org
Starting at the mesoscopic level with a general formulation of stochastic thermodynamics in
terms of Markov jump processes, we identify the scaling conditions that ensure the …

Mechanical pressure and momentum conservation in dry active matter
We relate the breakdown of equations of states (EOS) for the mechanical pressure of
generic dry active systems to the lack of momentum conservation in such systems. We show …

Simple models of self-propelled colloids and liquid drops: from individual motion to collective behaviors
N Yoshinaga - Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 2017 - journals.jps.jp
In this review, we discuss recent developments in the theoretical models of self-propelled
particles. We first summarize simple models, including active Brownian particles (ABPs) …

Local stress and pressure in an inhomogeneous system of spherical active Brownian particles
The stress of a fluid on a confining wall is given by the mechanical wall forces, independent
of the nature of the fluid being passive or active. At thermal equilibrium, an equation of state …

Motility-induced clustering and meso-scale turbulence in active polar fluids
Meso-scale turbulence was originally observed experimentally in various suspensions of
swimming bacteria, as well as in the collective motion of active colloids. The corresponding …
